Alex Jones' bonkers conspiracy theory: Trump knows about assassination plot and he's 'ready to die'

Far-right firebrand Alex Jones prophesied on his Saturday night show that "they" were going to kill former President Donald Trump.

As a former president, Trump enjoys a tight circle of Secret Service protection that includes his cars and home.

Still, Jones thinks it will happen.

--snip--

“And Trump, by the way, has talked to Roger and others and said, I’m ready to die," Jones continued.

If he is ready to die, the fucker should go off and do it already.

Jones knows his "prediction" will come true sooner or later. Whenever the end of Trump's natural life arrives, MAGAworld will declare it an assassination.

Only the truly humble are truly ready to die.

The bigger the ego the greater the delusion of being able to wrestle with Yama.
Those who spend their time with mirrors do not easily surrender to not being seen.

Or a who's gonna do it?

What are the odds that Alex Jones and Hannity and maybe Moscow Mitch were all at the planning meeting to decide how to get TFG out of the way before he squeals on the rest of them as he's FINALLY going down?

He will be Epsteined.

Fundraising and trying to get the cult to commit acts of violence. The radical right's raison d'etre.

If their “messiah” is sacrificed who becomes the new leader and how does that benefit Trump? TFG isn’t really interested in leading a movement, he’s only interested in getting richer and avoiding a jail sentence. Self sacrifice isn’t really in his DNA.

This sounds more like Alex trying to grab the spotlight for a few minutes by saying insane shit.

It wouldn't surprise me if one of the lesser-known GQP toadies was assigned to cancel his license to breathe. He'd cease being an anchor around their necks and instantly become a martyr for the maggots to rally behind. A two-fer. From chump to champ in one fell swoop. (Black velvet paintings by what's-his-name of Rump ascending to heaven on a golden escalator to sit at the right hand of God will be available at their fundraising website, of course.)

So, which of the maggots is up for a suicide mission for the good of their party?

I can see it all now. The coward on his knees begging for his life. Likely story. Why isn’t Alex Jones in prison? Good Lord these people are insane. How long are we gonna have to hear from these criminals.

McDonald's and Kentucky Fried Chicken.

TFG will stroke out or choke out, probably on a hamberder.

With his last dying gasp he'll throw a bottle of ketchup.

The SS is always there, ready to render the Heimlich maneuver, administer cpr, call for emergency help, etc. Same thing with stroking out, unless he does it in his sleep and no one notices until the next morning. We can always hope, I suppose.

Get a grip, take a breath.

Erase the name "Alex Jones" from your memory banks.

Proceed.
